superhero Siblings

This program, which supports siblings of current NICU patients, will provide comfort and respite during a stressful time for the family. Superhero Siblings will receive a care package that will showcase their role in this amazing journey.

Having a baby in the NICU and other children at home is hard enough, let alone explaining the situation to those siblings. This program provides comfort for those during this difficult time to take their mind off of the uncertainty. They can carry their Superhero Sibling Title around knowing they are a part of this amazing journey.

One of our Superheroes!

“MIRACLES COME IN THE SMALLEST PACKAGES”

My name is Katie Roberts. I am a NICU mom and I work full time for a National Home Builder focusing on Apartment Living. The real estate/property management market has always been an interest of mine and I have spent the last 16 years working my way around it and finding my place with my current company for the past 7 years.

I have 4 amazing children, all boys, ranging from 3 and a half to 14 years old. They keep me pretty busy and make my heart melt daily. They have taught me many lessons and helped shape me into the mom I want to be. My youngest, Dylan, is my NICU miracle. His Apgar score of ‘0’ made me realize that life is to not be taken lightly. He spent 27 days in the NICU and after being intubated and on a cooling bed he showed me just how resilient he is. He was released without any medical intervention needed however he has permanent hearing loss in his right ear. That doesn’t stop him from running around with his brothers showing them just how tough he is. He truly is our Miracle baby.

Kelly and the Superhero Project has provided an amazing amount of love and support during our journey thus far. This foundation has allowed me and my family to raise awareness for HIE (Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy), a type of brain damage that occurs when an infant’s brain doesn’t receive enough oxygen and blood. With the support of this amazing foundation we were able to raise enough money to get our Hospital a Cooling Bed & bilirubin blankets.

I am so proud to be apart of this foundation and help and support other NICU families. This journey has lots of ups and downs but I want to be here to show these families that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

The Superhero Project helps so many families when they need extra support and kindness. The ability to see Jack and Colin on the Angel Eye Camera made us feel close to them when they were in Abington’s NICU.
